Also just to clarify, if there had been a poll option that said I (for Incomplete) I would've chosen that option. Alas, but no such option exists.
The option can be called, "wait and see"

Can we get a write-in?

@SS: Yeah I know, I just felt like being Sir Buzzkillington. I did try to keep the thread somewhat on point though.

Re: Grade the Redskins Moves So Far

I like the WR pick ups and the trade of our picks for Griffin has grown on me, still bitter about the 2nd rounder this year though, but I had really hoped Fletcher would have been resigned by now and that we would have been more aggressive addressing the RT and safety positions. I know both were a bit thin markets, especially safety, but unless they expect some decent june salary cap cuts from other teams I'm not seeing what they are seeing in our current players at those positions.

Re: Grade the Redskins Moves So Far

I'd like to change my grade to an "A" with the Leigh Torrance signing.

Re: Grade the Redskins Moves So Far

I gave it a "C" primarily because the cap penalty seriously impacted their plans and they've been stymied on a few fronts (Royal, Winston, Bell) which would have made a big difference in my grade. I like some of the moves but would have liked them much more as part of a larger plan if they could have implemented it.

Re: Grade the Redskins Moves So Far

I chose F, and yes I was being a smart alec. The F is because I hate all offseason moves, and want Griffin and Garcon catching those TD's now.

I also really don't know how to rate the moves honestly. The biggest move is Griffin, and assuming he is a Franchise QB this offseason is an A, but my Skins Black Helicopter sense refuses to let me get that excited.

Re: Grade the Redskins Moves So Far

We need to update this thread w/ a new poll after the draft, beginning of pre-season and then opening day and end of regular season.

That said, I'd give our FO a skeptical B right now based on the following assumptions: Garcon has 1000+ yds and 7 TDs; Fletcher is eventually re-signed to a 2-3 yr deal; we add a legit RT or S through the draft; and our o-line performs better than last season. If Garcon doesn't contribute immediately it's a C- at best. If Garcon is a dud and we don't re-sign Fletcher it's an F and Danny should start vetting new HCs/GMs after week 16.
